All, I was on my fairly normal Monday work run around and stopped at Windsor Lake for a brief moment. Gulls and geese everywhere. There were thousands of geese. Many Cacklers but mostly Canadas. 1 Snow x Canada hybrid. I re-found the Long-tailed Duck and the female Barrow's Goldeneye. I had an immature Glaucous Gull in the fray. I attached photos to my Ebird checklist. I actually think there was also an Adult Glaucous as well and when it flew over I noted no black primaries and the bird was huge but I could not rule out Glaucous-winged based on the lighting. I could not re-find the bird. Still some California Gulls around along with many Herring Gulls. I did have an adult Lesser Black-backed Gull that I have seen off and on there for a couple of weeks. This spot will probably remain worthy of a good look at least until the freeze later this week. Many Common Goldeneye and Common Mergs. One female Hooded Merg was present also. Many loafing gulls on the ice shelf and logs on the west side of the lake. I'm sure I missed some goodies in my haste.
